Very helpful, everyone loved it! It contained lots of wonderful resources, and was a big hit amongst the group.

Overall, this was an interesting story that was very accurate to what problems many teens are experiencing today, even if it was a bit over the top. All of the characters had lots of layers and each was given the same amount of attention, which was really nice to see. My biggest advice would be to go in without expectations, and without thinking that it's a thriller as it really doesn't feel like one.

This book club kit is incredible! I love all of the extras it includes (even bookmarks!) This is a wonderful resource for any educator wanting to do a book club for The Rumor Game. It really takes all of the guess work out of finding resources for the novel.

I downloaded this kit to garner some ideas for my own book club. I thought it was great! It's extremely thorough. I absolutely loved the design; it's quite clever how they made the author's interview look like text messages to tie in with the book. I also really loved how it recommended similar books to read next. The section about open communication and mental health resources is a great resource for parents and teens alike. Very impressed overall with this kit!

These book club kits are a nice resource for book clubs. This particular one includes guides on how to achieve open communication as well as a list of resources. Very interesting!

As a current Book Club Organizer, this Book Club Kit was very helpful. I enjoyed the Author chats and the insight in what to ask to then have more discussion questions for meet ups. The creating open communication section really was beneficial as well. Overall the guide was straight to the point, well written. It kept my attention and had me searching other kits.

This book club kit has many options for focus depending on how your book club operates. The Q&A with the authors is informative and introduced some why’s and perspectives I hadn’t even pondered. I like that there are separate questions and content for teens and adults/parents. Due to the various hot topics explored in the book, I really liked the fact that there’s a section listing various resources for those dealing with any of these issues who need help beyond what’s available at home or school. The more we can improve access to resources the better, so I appreciate that. The bookmarks were a cute touch, especially the one with the affirmation quote although as an e-kit it seemed odd to have pictures of physical bookmarks.

I love these Book Club Kits and especially the ones that include an interview with the author. I am impressed with how well thought out these book club kits are. They always include really great extras, like the videos and the bookmarks. I think they're a great resource for a book club to use. The included discussion questions are perfect for encouraging deeper exploration of the book's characters and themes, and I loved how Netgalley began including this in request. Will definitely use in the near future with my very own book club.

This is a great resource to help guide a discussion for a small or large bookclub group. I think that the content provided within this book club kit is just enough to really help lead a discussion while also leaving room for things that come up among members.

I wanted to express my appreciation for The Rumor Game and the accompanying Bookclub Kit. I am personally very interested in reading this novel and feel it would be a valuable addition to my classroom. The curriculum thoughtfully addresses important and timely issues, and I especially appreciate how potential triggers are identified along with resources for mental health support.
Unfortunately, my school does not have the funding to purchase this text at this time, and my principal also raised concerns about the sensitive content. While I understand his reservations, I believe it’s critical for students to engage with challenging material in a supportive environment.
One suggestion I have is to include more differentiated resources within the kit. Perhaps providing a set of adaptable slides could help teachers tailor the content more effectively to different learning levels. This would be a great addition to an already fantastic set of discussion questions.
Thank you for your efforts in creating meaningful and engaging resources. I look forward to the possibility of using this text in the future!

Whoever did the graphic design for this kit deserves a raise. The theme and content are truly next level.

I appreciate the interactive layout design, which fits the story premise. Although I haven't read the book, the book kit provided an overview of its content and message. The interview and 'meet the author' page provided me with more information about the author, as well as the motivation and backdrop for how the narrative was inspired and developed. Aside from that, it would be good to have some sort of character profile so that we could get into greater detail about the characterisation, as well as some other item other than a bookmark, such as a postcard print or character visualisation. Overall, I love the contents and the supplementary components, such as book recommendations, a discussion questionnaire, and a bookmark.

"Rumors" by Dhonielle Clayton and Sona Charaipotra
"Rumors" by Dhonielle Clayton and Sona Charaipotra is a gripping social thriller set in the elite world of Foxham Prep. The novel brilliantly captures the volatile nature of high school politics and the destructive power of rumors. With well-drawn characters and a fast-paced plot, Clayton and Charaipotra explore themes of reputation, rivalry, and redemption. The shifting dynamics between Bryn, Georgie, and Cora keep readers on the edge of their seats, while the underlying commentary on social media's impact on youth adds depth to the story. This book is a must-read for fans of contemporary young adult fiction that tackles real-world issues with both suspense and insight.

Fantastic kit for use in book club meetings. We struggle with discussing the book (we usually say a few worked about it and then start chatting about anything in general) and this will help us to stay on track.

Another great bookclub kit!
I love the design of the author interview how it was a group chat. The discussion questions were great and are perfect for a book club. I also love that they included a what to read next section. The bookmark designs were awesome!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for letting me read the kit!

This is great! I'm in two bookclubs, I think we can use this for future meetings, thanks for providing it for use.

I really liked this. My book club is reading this book now and we have a meeting later this week and I'm so happy I stumbled across this so that we can use it in book club and talk about it. I love that it has extra things about the book and from the author
